Abstract
A watch/calculator is disclosed which employs a hold circuit to hold clock incrementing pulses when data from the clock is transferred to calculator circuitry or an arithmetic operation is performed on the data. When the time data is returned from the calculator circuitry to the clock circuitry or the arithmetic operation is completed, the hold circuit releases any held incrementing signal so that an increment signal is not lost, even when the time data is momentarily out of the clock circuitry in the calculator circuitry or other operations are being performed on the time data. Thus, when the time data is returned to the clock circuitry or the operation is completed, the data is incremented or updated as it would have been normally.
